I am contemplating an upgrade from woody to sarge on a work server. A number of security-related packages such as clamav and chkrootkit need to be kept up to date to deal with new threats such as viruses and rootkits. I understand that if I stick to the "stable" tree, I will only get critical security patches and won't get the latest version of the software. For example, the official version of clamav is 0.84, but there will be numerous updates over the next couple of years, and 0.84 will become obsolete.
To keep up to date should I just use the "official" debian "stable" sources, or should I use "unofficial" sources (such as backports.org)? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
